World Card Making Day Stampin'! Up! Blog Hop feat. Jar of Love Stamp Set
Friday, September 30, 2016 Somerset, UK
It's so great to join together with so many demonstrators from all over the world to celebrate this crafty event, we have lots of amazing inspiration for you today and I hope you enjoy looking at our projects!
My name is Kim Price and I live in Somerset in the UK. You are currently visiting my blog Handmade by Kim. There is a list at the end of this post which will help you to move along from blog to blog so you see all 20 amazing projects.
I wonder how many different countries you will be visiting today?
My project today features the Jar of Love Photopolymer Stamp Set and the Everyday Jars Framelit Dies.
There are 37 stamps and 17 dies between these two sets - what a bargain! Did you know you can buy both of these sets as a bundle and save 10%!
To make my card, I have used the colour Pool Party for the card base and have chosen the same colour paper from the Subtles Designer Series Paper to coordinate.
I stamped the image of the jar in Crumb Cake ink onto Whisper White cardstock and used the matching framelit to die cut it using my Big Shot machine.
Next I stamped some stems onto the jar using Mint Macaron ink and then lightly sponged the lower half of the jar with Pool Party ink to look like water.
I then wrapped some Linen Thread around the neck of the jar and tied a small bow before fixing the jar to the card using Stampin' Dimensionals.
Next I did some 2-step stamping and stamped the flowers in 3 different colours using 2 shades that complimented each other - Peach (Calypso Coral ink and Flirty Flamingo ink), Yellow (So Saffron ink and Crushed Curry ink) and Pink (Blushing Bride ink and Sweet Sugarplum ink). I attached Stampin' Dimensionals to the back of each individual flower and arranged them at the top of the jar.
To complete the card I added the sentiment Happy Birthday using a stamp from the Balloon Builders stamp set that fit perfectly into the smallest die from Tags & Labels Framelit Dies.

I made this card for a lady in my team at work who did something so lovely for me. One day I went back to my desk after a meeting and on my desk was a Slimming World magazine and a pack of their yummy cereal bars.
She knew I was thinking of rejoining as I needed to not only lose weight for all of the normal reasons but also to help with a knee injury I've had since May. Her little nudge was just what I needed and I rejoined the next day. I've lost 1/2 stone so far and my knee is slowly improving with regular exercise and physio therapy. Any weight loss will also help so her helping me start to think about what I eat again was just the kindest gesture someone has made in a long time. Of course I wanted to say thank you and so I made this card for her. Thank you Jane!
I created my background using the classic old favourite stamp set Gorgeous Grunge. I stamped using Blushing Bride, Wisteria Wonder, Perfect Plum, Mint Macaron and Island Indigo. I love how handmade this looks yet its all stamping - the large ink blots are my favourite!
I created a layer of Perfect Plum cardstock and using Stampin' Dimensionals I added it to the front of my card at slight angle.
I then stamped my sentiment on Whisper White cardstock using Elegant Eggplant ink and again set it at a slight angle.
I've chosen the sentiment Thank you so much as I really like the phrase and also the size of this stamp as it can be the main feature of the card. The sentiment is from the Thankful Thoughts stamp set, as you can see you are spolit for choice with so many stamps.
I've also entered this card into the Global Design Project #GDP055 challenge using the theme Random Acts of Kindness. Jane's guesture really was a random act of kindness and the card I have made is basically saying thank you.
In the next few weeks I will start making some Christmas cards. I've had all the stamps and papers for a little while but as the weather was still warm I quite simply have not been thinking at all about Christmas yet. October is only a few days away so its time to get started, plan my swaps for an upcoming Stampin' Up! event and come up with some ideas for making large quantities of Christmas cards for my friends and family.
